Exotic Matter and Space-Time

Abstract

Exotic forms of matter such as carbon nanofoams, hexalambdas, super-hypernuclei, strange stars, pentaquarks, color-balls, etc. and their relations to current problems in cosmo-particle physics such as dark matter and energy are discussed in some details. This is an extended version of the invited talk presented at the International Conference on New Trends in High-Energy Physics , Yalta, Crimea(Ukraine), September 10-17, 2005, which has been published in the Proceedings, edited by P.N.Bogolyubov, P.O.Fedosenko, L.L.Jenkovszky, and Yu.A.Karpenko(Bogolyubov Institute for Theoretical Physics, Kiev, 2005). In an extended and up-dated version of the Chapters I and III, entitled "Exotic Nuclei and Strange Stars", which has been published in Nonlinear Phenomena in Complex Systems 18(2015)25-30, new forms of matter such as exotic nuclei and strange stars are discussed in some detail.
